Die Inscriptiones sacrosanctæ vetustatis (1534)
-
Roland Béhar
Abstract
The article considers the role and significance of Bienewitz’ and Amantig’s Inscriptiones sacrosanctæ vetustatis (Ingolstadt, 1534) for the humanism of the early years of the reign of Charles V (1500-1556), when the European perspective was extended to the whole world. This collection is the first non-local collection of inscriptions of the Roman antiquity, but can also be analysed as an example of the use of ancient remains to legitimize politics in the first half of the 16th century - as an interested transformation of antiquity. The Inscriptiones are characterized by the fact that Spain is the first country in Europe to be represented, and that the first inscriptions are obvious counterfeits. The article tries for two of them to sketch their posterior fortune, as a sign of the success of the Inscriptiones
